Nowadays adults want to be forever young and they dress like teenagers. Children's clothes look like ones for grown ups but smaller (miniature Channel-style jackets, shoes with studs size 24..). It is not a surprise that mothers and daughters exchange clothes. Grandmas and granddaughters as well (even my 90-year-old granny has something from H&M). Women buy in men's section clothes for themselves.

This year I started 'hunting' at sales very late-just last week. I must say that I like this time when sales are slowly coming to an end. That is when I find real bargains. I do not even get discuraged that what is left on sales and nobody wanted is crammed somewhere in the corner of the shop to give more space to brand new collections. My today's outfit consists mostly of these 'unwanted' clothes- discounted up to 70%.

A leather skirt has appeared in my wardrobe for the first time. What encouraged me to get it was, apart from the price, its burgundy colour. I am taking the advantage of the 'burgundy madness' because I really like this colour. I am this kind of person who needs to create a balance in the outfit while wearing something short and tight. That is why if I put a mini skirt I pair it with a bit loose shirt (and buttoned up).

I cannot imagine that there was a time when I did not have them in my wardrobe. Suprisingly, it has not been such a long time since I have tried them for the first time. Maybe 6 years. I found them a bit strange at the very beginning. When I finally decided to buy my first pair I already knew that there was no way back. Skinny jeans dominated my wardrobe and bell-bottoms sank into oblivion. Now it is my favourite type and this will probably never change although new types appear, like boyfriend's jeans.

I have a dress code at my work. Even though it is not very srtict, jeans are only permited on Fridays. Today I am showing you a smart casual outfit, the kind that I wear on Fridays. And you, do you have a dress code?
